The original CX Sportive, first run in 2010, Wildwood defined our whole Gravelcross concept. Designed for pace and variety, the route changes constantly; dirt, tarmac, grass, gravel and hardpack, mixing it up and keeping you on the ball. Every part of the course is chosen to keep you moving and keep you pumped; no backing off, no bogging down, just ride everything and keep your pedals turning. This is the event your gravel bike was designed for!

65km on and off-road sportive utilising quiet roads, green lanes and bridleways around the valleys and villages of the Cotswold Hills south of Cheltenham. Shorter routes are also available. The route is suitable for riders of all abilities and ages of 14 years and over. Gravel, MTB and cyclo cross bikes are recommended and helmets are compulsory. Not suitable for standard road bikes. You can expect a wide range of riding surfaces as well as plenty of mud if it has rained recently. Full refunds available should the event be cancelled due to COVID-19.

The Chilterns Ridge Trail Ride is a fantastic trip through one of the best mountain biking corners of the home counties.

There’s no better way to finish a hard ride than with a cuppa and a bowl of Trail Break’s home made chilli!

The Wales Dirt Dash is a self-supported bikepacking event in the historic county of Brecknockshire (Breconshire) in Wales, split over two days with an overnight camp, starting and finishing at Tafarn Y Bont Pub in the picturesque village of Govilon near Abergavenny. This is the perfect way to experience the rugged beauty of Wales with off-road cycling, camaraderie and camping (and maybe castles). The Wales Dirt Dash is organised by the crew behind the Dunoon and Dorset Dirt Dashes. Here's what 2019 participants said about our event in Dunoon: 'Bikepacking is kind of new to me but everyone was so helpful and I have definitely come away learning from it. The whole event was very well organised by very friendly bikers and couldn’t fault any part of it. I will be back.’ 'A truly awesome weekend, unlike any cycling experience I've […]
